We can use a bridge appliance to fill the space between existing teeth, thereby giving you a new and rejuvenated smile. We now know that it is important to have something in place of a missing tooth to maintain your proper bite and prevent teeth on either side of the space from shifting. The entire process usually requires two or three appointments over 2-4 weeks. If anchor teeth on either side of the space are unavailable, dental implants may be the right choice for you.
